Chanhassen Dinner Theatres' new logo
It's been about eight months since the Chanhassen Dinner Theatres were bought by a group of investers led by longtime CDT artistic director Michael Brindisi and choreographer Tamara Kangas Erickson.
In that time they've made a few changes - most of which they're hoping people won't even notice.

According to a release, one of the first steps the new owners took was to hire a Director of Sales and Marketing. And along with the new director comes a new look in the form of a new logo.
Kangas Erickson stated, "There is a new feeling here, and it's a good one. Our intention as a new ownership group is to make this theatre strong and viable once again. It's a fresh, new beginning - with fresh, new energy. We want that to be reflected in our new logo."
In addition the CDT plans to launch a completely redesigned website in December.
That's a lot of newness for a theater founded in 1968.
